Thanks lad

Cheers for the mention Ricky! 💙 👍🏻 Makes me miss my Turbo (TuRd) EP3 bad!! 😥

[@dannylast437]

Had mine just over a month now and jeez I loved it more every day. These cars are so underrated. Yeah the suspension setup isnt great from factory but it's a great base for modding.

[@jonathancleaves5714]

Ricky... thank you for bring us top quality vids. Awesome work.👍

[@darthvaeber]

Awesome, just shows you don't need to spend mega bucks to have FUN! Perfectly achievable , well balanced, supercharged goodness. All parts working in unison. Even upgrades. Owner has the right idea. Perfect.

[@layesse1]

i love how simple this car looks i wouldn't add anything aesthetically to it

[@colecampagna6302]

k20a2 is my favorite K series hands down, this guys build is mental.

[@anharulislam9010]

This is such a sick car! Love the set up on it. I’ve had my EP3 for 6 years. I just can’t let it go.

[@harry6048]

Everyone that sells theirs regrets it. I’m gonna drive mine till it blows up then buy another one 😂

About time we had a rapid classic TYPE-R 👌🏾

[@1066gaz]

Yep one of the best hot hatches of all time.

[@motomash6143]

What a brilliant piece of Japanese engineering. I just love the ep3 ❤❤ I miss mine

[@CharlieboySLONDON]

This looks every bit 450bhp ! It absolutely moves 🔥 . I prefer the supercharged Type R over the turbocharged ones , I think they seem to work more naturally with the high revving nature of the car. Lovely build dude 👊🔥

[@CharlieboySLONDON]

Tbf I've only seen supercharged ones on KZbin but they seem to be the better conversion purely for track focus driving turbos all day for drag racing. They seem to have more linear power but that's purely from what I can see via a video/vlog.

[@leemichaels1490]

Thanks lads 👍🏼

[@GEARED_MrLucas]

Only over the last couple of years Turbochargers have taken over. People have ditched their Jackson Racing (Roots) supercharger for a turbo because they want more out of it. I wouldn't say superchargers are better for track to be honest, it depends on how they're setup and how your car is setup. Rotrex superchargers have there fair share of issues aswel, not the most reliable kits

[@deanp1429]

[@r32harps]

Sik!! Heard of turbo charged ep3 but this must be the first supercharged one ive heard off! Defo would choose this over turboed type r. Love the build. Sik video ricky as always

[@franklins8657]

r32harps people Been supercharging from before the streets were flooded with turbocharged ones! 300bhp used to be the benchmark though, now they’re a different class 👊🏽

[@kayd9597]

Having owned both a turbo charged ep3 and a supercharged ep3 personally would choose the supercharged every time for road driveability. The progressive nature can be tuned perfectly alongside vtec. Of course if you want a drag monster I would choose turbo. That's just my subjective experience.

[@dmodeejay]

Course I was the first to watch this haha 😅🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@johnhirst5659]

[@Nathan-gh3jx]

john hirst did you think he was really gonna reply to you or something 🤦🏽‍♀️💁

[@davespooney8472]

I like chargers coz the most power/torque is at the top end, you’re always chasing that. Where with stock (smaller) turbos it’s like whoosh in the mid range, break traction and then it’s all over. Like the 1.8t’s - all over by 5k.

[@jerrybandit1195]

Great video Ricky love an respect from over in the USA that car man people do understand the rotrex kit in k series hondas is so much fun reliable as hell to a great build for anyone it's really an all around vehicle circuit drag every day use for money cant beat it

[@roadtuned1416]

Love supercharger sound hence why supercharged my e46, absolute beast :)

[@fortniteboss2837]

I've got an E46 mate how much did supercharging cost you pal? And what power did you achieve

[@roadtuned1416]

@@fortniteboss2837 It's about 340bhp now, next week doing upgrades and going for 380-400bhp. It cost me alot but ive been doing the car for 2,5 years. Follow me on ig @e46_supercharged if you want, car originally started as 320 but i did an engine swap too.

[@armando_alves]

Doubt it's got less than 10k in mods alone

[@Jenkzyx]

Armando Alves it’s possible to go charged ect all new you’d be under that price range

[@jimmyfarley5581]

Standard engine. Standard clutch. No LSD. It's shit. Mechanically it's a ticking time bomb. Power is nothing without control. I fitted my ep3 with a rotrex supercharger but I only went with the stage 1 setup. However I fitted all the necessary mods. The car made 337bhp and 225 ft lbs. I fitted coilovers, a LSD, Stage 2 clutch, Gruppe M induction kit,strut braces front and rear, JDM anti roll bars front and rear, performance discs and pads front and rear with braided brake lines and high temperature brake fluid. I fitted a high flow fuel pump and 750cc injectors. High temperature spark plugs and high temperature coolant. I fitted lightweight OZ Allegerita alloys and the camber was a "fast road" setup. I fitted an engine torque damper and polyurethane engine mounts. New track rods. A piper exhaust manifold and 2.5 inch exhaust system with decat pipe. All of these mods were fitted and tuned at Eurospec2000 in Guildford. With a Hondata ECU. This guy has built this car in his shed. Focusing on power! In the process he forgot about drive ability. Reliability and sale ability.

Whilst I don’t disagree with that Dave, whenever I see American vids the power levels they quote seem really high. I know my Imprezas & Evo’s well and some vids I see they’ll be like “it made 400 wheel bro” and I think... not a hope in hell.
